Haven't left an update in a couple of days because nothing much has been happening. I spoke with Chris from Reeflo about the dead dart. He explained the sometimes the darts won't kick in when you initially fire them up because of the seals being so tight. This is written in the instructions that I didn't read because I'm a man and don't need no instructions. I attempted to kick start the dead dart as described in the instructions and it did kick start however it only ran about 15 min before it died again. I think we have a problem with this one.

The second dart that seems to be louder than the first "may" have a bearing problem. Chris is suppose to call me sometime and listen to the motor running and let me know if it is the bearings or not.

Worse case scenerio, I'll end up with another two brand new darts.

Chris explained that sometimes these do get damaged in shipping even though they look alright on the outside. If they get dropped it can shift things on the inside and cause problems.

OVERFLOW: Appears to not be leaking anymore with just a patch job.

SUMPS: Water tested sumps to find two bulkheads leaking that tighting didn't seem to fix. Gave up, unscrewed them, added silicone and put them back together. Will test again tomorrow.
